Just in time for Christmas, here is the first release candidate of our new Scala distribution: Scala 2.7.3 RC1[1]. This new version is mainly intended as a maintenance release: it fixes a number of bugs and improves on various aspects of the existing code. There are no new features, however; they are being added instead to a new development branch, currently in its early stages, that will become the next major Scala release sometime next year. If no particular problems are found with this first release candidate, a final Scala 2.7.3 release should follow in a few weeks. Please read below for further details.
